McLaren explain critical choice behind Lando Norris-Oscar Piastri difference
McLaren boss Andrea Stella described the decision to split strategies between Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri at the Hungarian Grand Prix. Norris won with a one-stop plan, while Piastri challenged with a two-stop strategy. Norris switched to a one-stop after a tough first lap, then fended off Piastri’s late advances. Piastri’s championship lead narrowed, as Norris cut it from 16 to nine points. Stella’s aim was to give Piastri a fair chance against Norris without deviating too much from the optimal two-stop strategy.
